10 x state champion in high school (way back in the day!)
3 x USA team member
Short-Term Running Goals:
I would like to run an Olympic Trials Qualifier in the marathon.
I would also like to run on one more international team before I pack it in!
Stay healthy! (My biggest challenge!)
Long-Term Running Goals:
Run my whole life, and then live vicariously through my children. (just kidding) , but I do want to pass on a healthy lifestyle to them.
Help coach East High to a state championship. (hope it doesn't take a lifetime!)
Personal:
I've been running since I was nine. I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me. We have two children: Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.) I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.
45 degrees is much more pleasant than 20. I took advantage of the warmer weather and a good night's sleep to run a little farther. Tomorrow my goal is to break the no-run-Wednesday pattern that's been happening. Even if it's just a short run.
I broke the no run on Wednesday curse! It helped that I didn’t have a rehearsal last night. Not the most productive run. There were a lot of random icy spots, so I had to slow down. I can’t wait for winter to be over!
Ran indoors. 20 minute warm up. 10 x 2 minutes on/off. Cooldown to 8. I'm not very fast. 6:10-6:30 pace on the fast. Next month my goal is to throw a little more tempo/speed in.
